UND99 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 87? I was thinking he played on the team that had the big brawl where they turned the lights out. Not sure though. Don't qoute me. Then again for some reason I keep thinking he played in a tourney in Switzerland. Greg Johnson played in 1991, the year Lindros dominated in Saskatoon.

smokey the cat Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Greg Johnson played in 1991, the year Lindros dominated in Saskatoon. Played in 84 and coached in 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND99 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Played in 84 and coached in 2004. Wasn't Sandelin head coach in 2005, the year it was held at The Ralph? Also assisted under Blais at the 2012 tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiki says 2004 and 2011. Could just be how they label the years. But USCHO says Blais coached in 2012 so I will go with you on Sandelin coached 2005 and assisted in 2012.

Wilbur Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Lucia has done a fantastic job thus far with the group they have. Attack, attack, attack. Maybe I'm too used to watching UND trying to sit on a lead and chip pucks out and clog up lanes. I like this team's chances. Obviously one more game in the group stage, but I think they'll win the group and play the likes of Russia in the semis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some news outlet (I can't remember which one) just did a story about the ridiculous talent pool at that tournament, and Sandelin was a frequent interviewee.

Without a doubt that might have been the most talent the tournament has ever seen. Look at the rosters for all of those teams and then look at current NHL rosters.

Redneksioux Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Good grief...that whole tournament was loaded with NHL talent. Only way it will ever be that good again is another NHL lockout. If the NHL season was in session I think it's safe to say half of team Canada would not have played in that tournament. I was offered $1000 for my one ticket by multiple Canadians without tickets at the Betty just prior to the championship game. No way I was going to miss that game though.

MafiaMan Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Germany beat the Czech, tourney is getting weird! Team USA skated circles around Germany yesterday and the Czech Republic took it to Canada. Maybe the Czechs were buying their own hype after their upset. I can't believe Germany beat them.

Canada is in serious trouble if they lose today. Their World Junior team looks like the 1980 Soviets...scared to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
